Instead of me interviewing the guest, I've brought back one of the podcast's first guests and a good friend, Sacha Jones of Stiggly's Holistics NYC, to interview me. I'm calling it a special birthday episode as well as a sort of podcast birthday / anniversary. It's been over four years since I started this and so much has changed over those years with me, the podcast, the blog, and the direction I want things to go.

For long time pod listeners, thank you for all your support as I've changed and so has the show. And for new listeners, thank you too for giving the podcast a chance and feel free to check out some of those early (and very different) episodes from the younger days of the podcast (and the host).

Sacha dives into so many topics many of them inspired from the listener questions in the Facebook Group. You'll hear us discuss where I'm at now with body image, wellness, feminism, feeling feelings, my upcoming move to NYC, where I want my work & podcast to go, my new relationship (!!), plus some fun quick-fire questions....

links to everything we mention are below as always.

Sarah Britton of My New Roots was one of the first food blogs I started following over 7 years ago. Sarah didn't know it at the time but she was my holistic habits mentors - teaching me from a far everything from how to cook quinoa, to the wonder that is nutritional yeast and other kitchen tricks I had never heard of. Now, years later, her blog has become hugely popular, she's become a mother to a beautiful baby boy, has written two books, and her business has expanded beyond what she had ever expected. In this conversation we explore topics you may expect like healthy habits both in the kitchen and in everyday life. But we also talk about things you may not have expected like manifestation, travel and living abroad, and our mutual love for Abraham Hicks. There is something for everyone in this conversation and honestly we could have talked for hours more. Take a listen and let us know what you think in the Facebook Group. If you loved the episode and have more questions that we didn't cover post them there . I've also got a couple events coming up I hope to see some of you at!

FULL SHOW NOTES HERE

I love today's conversation but I hope it isn't an entirely a self-serving time for me to geek out about something I love. When I was 8 years old I became obsessed with Rent, the musical by Jonathan Larson that became a super hit in the mid 90s. Meanwhile across the state another kid, today's guest Danny Kornfeld also knew every word to the original broadway cast recording and fell in love with the show. Cut to 2016 and that young Renthead is playing the staring role in the show's 20th anniversary tour and today he's talking to me all about how that dream came true. Danny Kornfeld is a talented actor and his staring role in Rent comes after extensive performance experience, studying theater at Syracuse University, and moving to New York City to pursue a career in the theater. It was incredible to get to hear about what led Danny this role as well as explore the reflections that art have on his life and how they've inspired him to be himself more fully in real life. He is so thoughtful around his approach to his work and what it brings to the world. One of his favorite lines from Rent is “Give in to love, or live in fear". In my latest newsletter where I sent my recent reflections on love. The relevance of this line now in our current world shows the relevance Rent still has socially and politically 20 years later. I'm grateful the podcast allows me to connect with interesting people with similar interests like Danny and I'm real excited to see him perform tonight (on the day this is published I'm going to the show here in Detroit). I know regardless of your relationship to the piece you'll enjoy this tangental conversation, but warning, it might make you a new Renthead too...

Ever since Pete shared the products with me (while we were in Hawaii on the Ram Das retreat) I've been using them almost every day.

“If I’m not being true to myself how can I be true to someone else’s journey.”

“The opposite of war isn’t peace, it’s creation.”

“Give in to love, or live in fear.”

"We always are focusing on what’s not right in our lives when so much is right.”

“Pieces that transcend us to those kind of places are worth noting and celebrating.”

“The job of an actor is to tell all the stories of the world...and to live them truthfully.”

“Passion is something that can’t be taught.”

Today's episode is with the very wise Dr. Christiane Northrup. She's an OBGYN who has been the leader in holistic female health since the early 1990s. She's been featured on Oprah several times and her many best selling books have helped shift people's approach to health (like the bigger picture 'health' that expands beyond the physical), especially for women. For long-time pod listeners you may remember that I interviewed her daughter Kate Northrup as one of my first guests on the show. Dr. Northrup is so wise and gives such interesting information about sex, pleasure, and relationships as well as so much more in this episode. In our conversation we cover her background and her past work, why it has been so important and how that has led her to the work she is doing now and her latest book she wrote. We cover her wisdom gained on 'getting older', the changes in the medicine and wellness industry, the importance of embracing sexuality, the interconnectedness (in our bodies and beyond). She lists so many good resources in this episode, especially books, so be sure to check out the show notes below.If you have any questions for Dr. Northrup or myself tweet at us or reach out to us in the Facebook Group here.
